Understand

The islands of Guernsey and the other Channel Islands have a fascinating history. They were once part of the medieval Dukedom of Normandy, which held power in both France and England. During World War II, the Channel Islands were the only British territory occupied by German troops, and the remnants of the "Atlantic Wall" coastal defenses can still be seen on the islands' beaches. Today, the Bailiwick of Guernsey is a collection of autonomous islands that have a unique charm. While the residents are British citizens, each island has its own laws and taxes. Tourists can experience a mix of familiar British sights and sounds, along with unique experiences like horse-and-tractor life on Sark, the laid-back culture of Alderney, and the financial hub of Guernsey. Being the most southerly tip of the British Isles, Guernsey offers a warm(ish) weekend getaway for Brits without needing a passport, or a pleasant stop for cruise ship passengers looking for tax-free jewelry. It provides a less developed experience compared to a vacation in Jersey.
